That’s funny, when I bathe my cat the trust level does not increase.
more like the opposite. I get the evil eye for a long time afterwards. :D
If I tried to bathe my cats I would be a bloody stump!!😺😺😺
Well he needed to be cleaned up badly and just accepted it gladly
Usually a rep loss for me.. But then, They're probably using soft warm clothes, and not actually putting him in water.
Mine actually sulks for a few days and isn’t interested in socializing lol
My heart just broke at the poor shape of Apollo at the start of the video. So glad he got rescued and this tale had a happy ending.
Poor baby. ♡
If any one needed a lil help
This lil kitty did.
t.y.♡ nice person.
Love cures so many things 🌱
The way you 🥺 you took the time 😌 to clean Apollo 💙
very, very sweet 💗
He can see you now 🙂 ♡

We don't need people like them... We need to be like them🙌

I'd rather not live in a hedge thank you.
Absolutely
I don’t understand…
For those who do not understand the comment...it means we can be like them - the people who help animals - not the comment " we need people like them" because its like saying good for you guys doing what youre doing we need more like you but instead we will try to follow your example the best way we can in the way we can, it may not be animals it may be our neighbor, our friends or the homeless guy down the street, helping each other spreading kindness and goodwill instead of the hate that is being secretly indoctrinated to us. Give peace and love because it will come back to us also.
Seeing animals come back from the bottom of the barrel and making a full recovery is always a heartwarming feel.

I know, ( they were).. it broke my heart too, 😢
*When they finally understand that you're saving them, the face of relieve they get is priceless, I rescue a dog and the first day that I left him sleep on my house even tho it was still on the floor, he looked so happy, like he finally got a home*
I believe we all are 🥰
@@elreydelvideo Thank you
My mom & I bought a double house on the outskirts of our city that had an unusually high stray and feral cat population. For more than 20 years we have been caring for them, getting them fixed, finding them homes, providing food for the truly frightened ones. It's been a wonderful, if expensive, experience that we wouldn't change for the world. We love each and every one of them. ❤😊
you guys are real hero's and angels 🫶❤️
You are a hero!! xo
Thank you, but no. We just love them. Funnily enough, the previous owner of our house rescued dogs. Not strays or ferals obvs. It's the house, gives off love vibes to critters of all kinds.❤️
You didn’t just do a good thing for him. You did a good thing for mankind. Thank you for that.
I hate how they always start these videos by going for the back of the head. I rescued a friendly stray by just being friendly to him, keeping my hand below his chin.
@@MaxAbramson3the back of the head is reasonable enough because the cat doesn’t feel pain on that spot

This is heart wrenching. Thank God for people as yourselves. Daily I see so many starving neglected kittens, even grown cats. Right now I'm responsible for 6 cats left to starve. I love each and every one of them. I just can't save them all unfortunately. God bless you.
There's a neighbor five houses down who keeps cats and dogs in horrible conditions, he doesn't spay or neuter any of them and so a bunch of cats keep coming from his house. One of them had kittens under our house and we were able to socialize them, unfortunately Mama was too feral and we ended up doing TNR on her after months of trying to tame her indoors. She seems happy and we see her now and again, at least she won't add any more kittens who will suffer.
The two kittens were adopted together and are doing great!
@@WobblesandBean I hope you reported that neighbor to the authorities. All the animals there: dogs, cats should be rescued and re-homed.
@@WobblesandBean TNR IS all you can do! thank you for stepping up to help the community
I feed a few as well in the street, fortunately they're hidden and safe, I prefer them to be free out there and having food available honestly, I'd bring them all with me if I could but the freedom they have and never starving is a good feeling for me
@@WobblesandBean I think your neighbor is what rescuers call a hoarder. Not like people with houses full of junk because they can't throw things away, but people who have a compulsion to "collect" animals. You know how some people collect buttons, or string, or basically worthless things like that? These people collect animals. They claim to "love" them, but they keep them in deplorable conditions.
Hoarders are adept at making people sympathize with them; they'll beg a judge to let them keep half a dozen animals or so because "I love them so much, please let me keep at least a few." Then the collecting starts all over again.
Rescuers have been trying to teach judges about this syndrome, so that they aren't deceived. If I were you, I would talk to a humane society about what to do. They may advise you to report him to the police.
Losing vision with his last eye so he couldn’t find food and everything became dark so he hid. You guys are so amazing for this, He really needed you guys to save him from pain and fear. We all should strive to be more like them!!! ❤❤❤

I have my mom's feral cat that she worked with for 8 years to gain his trust. When we first took him to the vet he had every parasite known to man and severe ear infections from mites.Our vet said he would not have lasted much longer without medical care. He was later also hit by a car and my brother paid to have his leg set and to have him hospitalized for a month for bandage changes. My mom passed away last year and I just couldn't leave him at her house that was being sold, so I took him but I'm not allowing him to roam. He now lives in an enclosure that includes artificial turf, a pool shed with her canvas chair and quilt, a tunnel to hide in and my husband built him a wire enclosed condo with a ramp where he can watch the world go by. It took 8 years to get him where he trusts enough to be pet, brushed, and scratched. My mom and brother did an amazing job with him. I have my zero gravity chair in the enclosure and he loves me to just be in the enclosure with him. After his brushing and scratches, he plops down next to the chair and purrs. I so wish he could trust enough to sit on my lap or be held but I respect his limitations.
Hi Laura W,
We have similar stories of our mom's working with Ferals for years to gain their trust. I also have one of my mom's Feral cats named Teddy 🧸. I tried to catch the others after mom passed 2.5 yrs ago but Teddy was the only one I could trap. She's been living with me since mom passed. We drove from Philadelphia to Florida so that she could have a safe place to live and not be hungry. Teddy has made such progress in the past 2.5 years. She's still Feral but she is an indoor only kitty now. She sleeps on my bed with me. Follows me around like a puppy dog. She is so smart too. She plays ball with me pretty often. She had to learn how to play. She has never asked to go outside and has never had any litter box accidents. My mom would be so happy 😊 to see how well her Teddy is doing. I love her so much! She's my last gift from my mom to me 🥰 Teddy is lying right next to me and in my heart forever 💓
May you and your furbaby have a long happy life together.
Aww so loved thanks mom bro we ned.more love and Zave a life worth deserving strays are ports seennthem.just abandoned mode
Your mom, you and your husband are awesome. My dad helped every stray he found. May your mom and my dad Rip.
this is a hot take but i dont think 8 years of effort for just a minimal amount of trust for a cat is worth it
I adopted a Cyclopes, no idea how he lost his eye, he was a stray, now he's a retired housecat and seems to love a life of luxury. His biggest concern now seems to be why his breakfast is 10 minutes late.
You don't adopt them, they adopt you 🤣❤
You're a wonderful person and I wish you all good in the world!
How dare you not give him his breakfast on time? You absolute monster!

Just about to post the same... the people in all these videos on this Chanel are really special .
he needs an eye patch like the chef cat from MHW
I found an old cat hanging around our backyard, but could never convince him to come to me. We put out food and water for him and he continued to hang around. In February it hit -20 and I went out looking for him and finally got him. Brought him inside for the night…he never went outside again except when I took him to the vet to get checked. He was neutered, blind in one eye, and declawed front and back. Obviously a dumped pet since we have no neighbors. Vet said he was about 10-12 years old. For a year he lived the life of luxury and love until kidney disease got him.
You were the best thing that kitty knew. Bless you!🥰🐈🐱
i had a stray in my area and randomly walked into my house while i was standing at our open front door and we let him stay. he was kinda dirty but didn’t have any injuries and he warmed up to us FAST. he still wanted to be outside sometimes so i put a breakaway flea collar on him and let him come and go as he pleased. i didn’t let him go outside if it was storming but we didn’t have to worry about cold temperatures. we had a tree fall on our house during a storm and we were forced to move but we weren’t able to take him with us so i hope he’s ok. but i’m convinced that someone else was also caring for him like we were
@@misseselise3864 definitely sounds like you might have been one of his several families lol
You were his miracle. You know that right?
I am terribly sorry for your loss. At least he had you at the end of his life.
No animal should ever have to suffer like that.😢I’m glad you rescued, cared for him, gave him a furever fur home!❤️ Give him 1 billion kisses!❤️🐈
He is so gorgeous. You brought him around to looking so fluffy and full and healthy. I'm so happy for him!
When you guys took him in, he just "let it happen". He probably thought he's going to get eaten and gave up. Poor creature didn't have any idea how beautiful his life was going to be from there.
I think they were wrong.
He didnt "Let it happen", she took him by his neck, the place you can grab any other cat, that's his instinct.
You shouldn't do it though, you are literally take the cat's options, make him easily to be eating by a predator if that happens again(he will just give up think he will be carried).

It took 3 years for my feral cat Gracie to come around but now that she has I'm her human. Guys I'm a 43 year old man who didn't want an animal especially a feral cat but here I am killing it as a Cat Dad. She sleeps with me every nite and makes muffins on me all day everyday. It's hard to believe that I told my daughter we couldn't keep her at first. What was I thinking? I friggin' love my kitty cat 🐱
My father in law was the same....didnt want the feral cat. But the cat chose him....and they became close. Enjoy Gracie while you can, time is a thief.
What does the phrase “makes muffins on me all day everyday” mean? If something is making a muffin on me, I’m most likely going to be very displeased...
@@nickthompson1812
Cats like kneading soft surfaces with their paws, it's a habit coming from the times a cat was a kitten (kittens knead their mama's belly for milk) and kneading is often also called "making muffins/cookies"

okay when will my dad trust me to take care of an animal ?! i just want a cat 🥲

This is why I hate when people hate cats because of how “hateful” they are. Every cat I’ve met for the first time has been so sweet and loving. A cat CAN be hateful, but they usually have their reasons.
Exactly
Exactly!! And these people also usually have such a huge double standard when it comes to dogs. I’m very indifferent on dogs, but I’m also very terrified of them because they’re EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, especially when compared to a cat. But no, of course it’s a cat that’s hateful and mean because it got mad you touched it where it didn’t like... /s
Omgggg thank you! Im constantly going back and forth with my friends about how they think all cats are mean! If you treat a cat badly or any animal poorly they are not going to be nice. However if you treat any animal with love and compassion they will be nice. Literally common sense. I grew up with cats my whole life and they’ve all been loving and literally just want to cuddle with you all day. I have the videos and pictures to prove it! You can tell people all you want but it’s like they always believe what they believe🙄
I don't think there is another living being on the planet that can equal or surpass a cat's emotional intelligence...once they see you don't want to hurt but help them , they are all in...

I adopted a traumatized cat who lost its owner to COVID and went through some hard times afterward. She was super timid and aggressive but after a few months of careful, patient work she's a little ball of love. I highly recommend rescuing senior cats from shelters.
My brother adopted an adult cat from the shelter, it was going to be put down soon cause it was there for so long and no one adopted him. My brother adopted him and brought him home, and he has made our family so much happier; best decision ever made, and he loves it there

I'll admit I probably would have named him Odin due to the eye.
He looks almost exactly like my grandmother's old cat Beaker and I'm getting nostalgic. Beaker was abused before she got him and he couldn't meow, only "beak" but he was the snuggliest furball I've ever known.

For all those wondering.
The way they held him with his neck is 200% ok
it’s how mothers hold them as kittens.
They also become hopeless at that time
@@tobysus6569 No, they don't - no more than kittens do when their mother cat is carrying them. They instinctively go limp, and that is all. Besides, it was the best option available here.
I still don’t like to see them held like that but I understand that sometimes there is no other options. I wouldn’t pick them up like that unless I absolutely had to. Just my opinion.
@@gory6747 I think its perfectly fine though they are built this way as kittens
But I never carry my cats like this
@@gory6747 yeah, it doesn't hurt much as adults but it does stress them out, but at the very least it's much better than grabbing them by the tail/legs.

Its an organization btw
Oh...its worse. But your "inner world" is what you make it. Which affects the outside world
The world gets better every day, life just 100 years ago was exponentially more difficult and full of suffering. But with time every facet of human existence as a whole improves.
The world is not human. Only human are bad
Correct! It's just that the numbers of bad guys are going up fast. Sad but true☹
As Apollo’s health increased, he looked like a totally different cat! It’s crazy how human intervention can change so much, wether it be positive or negative.
If this was a liberal American person they would've kicked him like a soccer ball, we have very bad liberal people in our country that would hurt others on purpose even if it's a cat...

His little meows when they were first treating him broke my heart
I rescued a feral cat once. That boy had a damn hole in the middle of his eye. Veterinarian wanted to stitch it up. I decided against it. I knew about the regenerative capabilities of cats. We waited and watched, if it would get any worse. Luckily, it didn't. Instead, it healed. The wound in the eye became smaller and smaller until it was gone. All that was left behind, was a small, whitish scar. I imagine what would be if we would've stitched it up. He would be running around with one perfectly healthy eye behind a stitched-up eyelid. This is no advice. I can imagine that a wounded eye could also kill your kitty. But always keep an eye on your options and make wise decisions for your animal.
All living things have the ability to regenerate! We all have stem cells that are quite possibly the most intelligent cells of the body. Activate!
So glad he’s healthy
With animals and with humans, the body wants to heal itself and it has that ability. Doctors know a lot, but there is a lot that the body can do that doctors can't. Countless animals and people over time have gone insane and died because they assumed doctors knew more about their bodies than they did. I'm not an anti-vaxxer which I felt like it seems I'm implying, but I'm not. Sometimes the best medicine is to trust in the way God made you.
I feel as if it's a game of percentages, they give you the best one but sometimes you can get lucky with another option, though hindsight is the only way to truly know and sometimes it's better not to risk it
@@jeremywhistler2850 This is such a harmful mentality. Doctors *do* know about your body more than you do, that is their job and what they were trained for.
We're imperfect, fragile beings, and so are most animals. We don't have some mystical ability to regenerate.
What an emotional transformation!! this is what makes rescue so amazing. The lady in this video is a real rescue veteran for who I have an incredible amount of admiration.
So glad there are people who do this for our animals. I’m so glad Apollo got through. Thank you.
The time and energy these people put into rescuing these broken and forgotten creatures is what real love is. These are the kind of people that make the world a better place.

a lot of respect for all who do this almost sacred work.. i have rescued cat at home. if i could (space) i'll definitely had much more.. you are an inspiration
I rescued a cat in terrible condition several years ago. After the vet did what she could, I brought her home. For the first year or so she was spooked if you walked up behind her. When she showed up in our neighborhood she was declawed and neutered, so she had been someone's pet. Fast forward 18 months and a friend looked at her and said ' why she's a himalayan kitty!' and we realized that she was.
Had her now for 5-6 years and she is a hoot. She plays like a kitten even tho she is 11 or so. Her coat is lovely and she a high maintenance princess, goes to her groomer every 4 weeks to keep her coat beautiful. In the last year, she decided to become a lap cat. She had never sat on us before but suddenly that's where wants to be A LOT.
I would never have expected her to be a very attractive cat but she fooled us! Best personality of any cat we have ever had - I see why owners of Himmys will often adopt more of that breed even tho they DO demand a lot of grooming and brushing and bathing - their personalities are so much fun, the high maintenance is well worth it!
That’s so sweet
@@Martianmight73 I was going to reply to that comment the EXACT SAME WAY! I read her comment and my initial reaction was going to say the exact same thing! You worded it and capitalized and everything just like I was going to!
So weird!
you can’t declaw cats that’s like senão long a person
I wish I could find a Himalayan to adopt!
@@evangeline... when she found the cat she was already declawed.
"He's our boy now". That was so reassuring. God bless you all

See that slow blink, that's cat talk for "I love you" they could'nt get rid of him now if they tried lol
SOME HUMANS ARE WORTH HELPING. BUT ALL ANIMALS ARE DEFINITELY WORTH HELPING ❤ WELL DONE ❤
Such a handsome boy.. his little meeps melt my heart everytime.
Very true statement my friend. However, Feral cats were created by humans from domesticated cats, that were thrown out into the streets by many of these "Forever ASSHOLES" that has NO regards nor respect for any forms of life whatsoever.
@@robertko5425 ... cats are not domesticated. Breed cats are. Cats have coexisted with humans since ancient times. They can survive perfectly well in the wild. Will their life expectancy be the same as a kept cat? No. But the life expectancy of a wild lion will not match that of one in a zoo either. The reason why there are ‘feral’ cats is because they co-exist in out habitat. Like birds, mice, rats, etc.
My mum and dad rescued a cat like this and they called it Winky as it looked like it was winking
I was thinking Odin would have been a good name ( the one eye and all) but Winkey and Apollo are equally appropriate. 👌
@@danapaul3216 good point but the cat died 2 weeks before the Thor movie
@@JAlpha23 what cat
Wow what a beautiful story...and a hard one. I'm grateful that they kept Apollo. He didn't need another journey. Thank you to the angels who rescue. It gives more hope to our fragile world. Hugs to everyone.
These humans are just amazing. They have so much love. God bless them
As a cat person literally surrounded by cats right now I want to thank you random people for helping the kitty and thanks for posting this video
His faint little meows when they started brushing off the mange off made me choke up. They were faint cries for help which these blessed people gave him. Thank goodness he'll never have to worry about it ever again.
The world truly needs more people like this. Thank you for helping that poor boy
Great job! People who take time and spend money on helping poor little animals like this are the best people. Giving them a chance to be healthy, have a home and feel love is the purest act of love and compassion.
I'm so glad compassionate human beings like these exist.
It's sad how few seem to. Granted most people probably just assume it. Hell, I know I don't look compassionate.
It's sad that some people value animal life over human life.
@@sofiarou7603 probably due to the facts most people are horrible even if you don't see it at first
@@sofiarou7603 we are all animals

Wow, this is so touching to see. Poor kitty's eyes must have hurt like hell. Respect to the people who saved him.
Aww poor baby bless you for showing and giving him love
You did a great thing!!!!
I’m really happy that the cat was saved!!!
Apollo was very close to death. Thank God you guys made the effort to not give up on him. He truly has blossomed. 😺
This makes me feel so sad because when i was a kid there was a feral cat that would come to our house and i wanted to help him so bad but my mother locked the door when he came and wouldn't let me help bcs he looked infected. His fur was awful and half of it looked like it was ripped and was full of diseases. It's more devastating to know its probably dead by now since there were a lot of dogs and it wasn't a baby. I wish i could go back and help him.
You can always help another cat. It won't fix everything but it can honor that cats memory. You can donate to animal rescue programs or just go to the closest feral colony near you. In the USA at least, there are feral cats in basically every neighborhood nationwide. You can trap the ferals, get them spayed/neutered at clinics, get them their shots, and let the ones that can't be tamed back out to live their lives where they're most comfortable. I've been doing this for a few months now and it's a great feeling knowing you're helping these cats to bring less of each other into the world to struggle to survive and are also protecting them from diseases.
my mom never lets me help foster pets. she says that if you feed them they will follow you everywhere and gain trust with you. i don't care. we all should help everyone who needs :(
it`s ok, you where a kid and you had the good intention! You can`t save everything.
❤️ I'm so sorry. That's really sad. My sister and I had a cat, this giant orange tabby, follow us home from our field when we were kids(it had been abandoned by someone and left to live as a barn cat) but clearly really loved people and had a home before. The farmer came to pick her up a couple of times and then said, to hell with it. You keep her. So that's what we did. What was really sad was that she was such a cuddly cat being left to live in a barn. 😥 We theorized that her previous human must have been an elderly lady who passed away because she would sit on our piano bench or couch for literally hours at a time to listen to someone playing and singing.
@@caterinabrilli8812 I can understand your mom feeling that way, it's a fact that if you feed a cat, the City that you live in will say that it's now your cat. You must take care of it, you must pay for the vet bills, the licencing fees, etc. The animal rescue places are not willing to take in these cats, they will only put them down and it costs money. That's the reality. But, if you want to help, there are ways, and it really is worthwhile and rewarding. I once rescued a feral cat that us neighbours had fed for about six years. He got very sick, my neighbours said he'd never make a good pet. I did have to spend a lot of money on him, but he gave me so much love. There's always a price to pay when you're trying to help an animal, or another person. But I think it's worthwhile myself!
God bless you beautiful people! Saving those who hopeless and dying is the most human of all acts.
I thank all who take part in helping the needy. No matter if they be human or animal.
Makes me happy, makes me smile man, love me some cats mayne, my cat always be cheerin my up when im down brah
“Elevated senses” *continues to rustle the bush*
I have a deaf cat who also thinks she is still a kitten (eg, some kind of disorder of some sort like Asperger's maybe), anyway she knows instantly when I've entered the room while she is sleeping and I think it's down to floor vibrations and even airflow as it moves their fur very easily and she probably feels it very well, what with heightened sence's because of being deaf. It's amazing to try and trick her to work out how she does it !.
As if you could avoid making noise in a bush like that.
mmm... bepis
Thank you
